Comment on Slightly unfortunate choice here

Ed Sheeran has watched multiple murders happening, but refused to report them on the groundsbthat he “didn’t want to get political”.

He’s also stopped friends of his from alerting people about the murders and murderer, saying “I just don’t want to be political!”.

Ed is not a safe person to be around.

Is that what the IDF calls their magazine?

Sheeran is STILL both siding. He really can’t bear to say genocide bad.

He could easily have defended Macklemore on the basis of them being friends and said he’ll throw his toys out the pram if Macklemore isn’t reinstated. But no, he’d rather make this mealy mouthed apology. We know whose side you’re on, Ed.

The British singer became emotional as he told the crowd his concert was “still a place where everyone is welcome, and everyone here can stand beside people that have opposing views”.

People against genocide can sing alongside people who approve of genocide! How wholesome! Yeah, I hope anyone anti-genocide refused to go.

He said that he had not known “whether this tour would be carrying on” and “whether I even wanted to be an artist at all”, but that he had returned to the stage because he was committed to his fans.

Aww, diddums. At least you get to decide if you want to continue your career. The kids under the rubble didn’t live long enough for that.
